The Point

Wired magazine has a profile this week on Andrew Breitbart, which we’re happy to highlight cause he’s going to be at The Sammies (By the way, get your tickets now!).

This is a great read for anyone who still hasn’t heard of this groundbreaking force in the political and culture wars, or read his group blog-style websites, Big Hollywood, Big Government, and Big Journalism. And for anyone interested in coming to see him speak.

From the story:

For someone who claims to hate the “Democrat-media complex,” Breitbart sure knows how to work it. Few people are better at packaging information for maximum distribution and impact. He is, depending on whom you ask, either the “leading figure in this right-wing creation of a parallel universe of lies and idiotic conspiracy theories” (that was liberal critic Eric Boehlert of Media Matters for America) or “the most dangerous man on the right today” (from Michael Goldfarb, Republican consultant and former campaign aide to John McCain).

Breitbart, as you can see, has become recognized all along the political spectrum as a master of disseminating information in the Internet age. More from Wired:

“The market has forced me to come up with techniques to be noticed,” Breitbart says. “And now that I have them, I’m like, wow, this is actually great. This is fun.”

It’s Friday. So take a few minutes, and enjoy.
